Small Business Development
We Sort specialises in helping small businesses figure out and reach their goals. That could mean getting a new product into production, or transitioning from a one-person outfit into an organisation with three, ten or 20 employees.
Optimise your working day
Processes bring structure to our working lives. By finding the critical points in your workflows - be that a rare step with great impact or an everyday task - we will find your best route from A to B.
Plan for the future
We Sort will listen to you, analyse your business, construct plans for creative and sustainable development, and then implement those plans with you. We bring momentum and an outsider’s perspective with insider skills, and specific knowledge for production efficiency and organisation.
Organisation is beautiful.

Why develop your business?
Transitional periods are the norm for most businesses as they adapt to changing environments.
— Growth: scaling has a massive impact as it will affect everything from roles to admin systems. We can create a strategy for growth, and oversee its implementation.
— Diversification: changing your offering might enable you to take advantage of an emerging market. Together we can consider how your skills and experience might best meet commercial opportunities.
